3 Tips for gaining confidence.

Dear Women,

This post is about #CONFIDENCE.  Confidence seems like such a common topic but it's one where many women lack or have a lot of doubt. So today, I want to tell you all some of the key factors to have confidence… and you guessed it, it has to do with #FASHION. Below is a list of three tips to begin to build your confident R8ting within.

TIP #1:

Clothe w/Confidence:  This means to be confident in the clothing you wear, in order to do this, you must know your… #bodyshape! To calculate your body shapes you will need to take measurements of your bust, waist and hips. After you take those measurements you can input them on the body type calculator website

http://www.calculator.net/body-type-calculator.html?bustsize=34&bustsizeunit=inch&waistsize=29&waistsizeunit=inch&hipsize=40&hipsizeunit=inch&x=0&y=0

and walahhh now you know your body shape. This is helpful so that you can confidently choose an outfit that highlights and enhances your best features. You will notice that once you figure out your body shape, dressing with confidence will become much easier. You can Google search more advanced outfit inspirations and it’ll be specific to your body.  

Lets say I measure myself and find my measurements to be:

 Bust 34  

Waist 29  

Hips 40

I would then input that data into the body type calculator (the link listed above) and find that I am a pear body type.  Finding out all that information now I can, on one of those days when I need to find an outfit quickly, Google search something like “ dressing a pear-shaped body” or outfit inspiration for pear-shaped bodies”.

 TIP #2  FIT  Define your dress. There is a term caledl "Unclothed cognition", which is linking or associating clothing with different positive or negative attributes and when you wear the clothing you embody whatever that characteristic may be. So lets say I associate Chanel bags with being a powerful female entrepreneur, then when I wear a Chanel bag I find myself acting and embodying the characteristics of a powerful entrepreneur. Do this daily: wear an article of clothing or accessory to remind you to be productive,optimistic and successful .

 TIP #3  Get R8ted! Figure out how you want to feel today and exude it on the outside with your appearance. "You look better you feel better". Give yourself a R8ting, whether it be G(Glamorous), PG(Pretty Gorgeous), R(Rebellious), X(SeXy), or B(Boss), you make that decision.
